Where can I buy new bearings for my 67 column? I already have a decent upper bearing from a doner column (thanks raidah) but I still need a lower bearing. mine is shot.

Try Classic Muscle. They have an online catalog. If it is not in the catalog call them cause they may still be able to get it.

Supposedly this bearing is still available from GM as part# 7805700.

It's only $18.79 from GMPartsdirect.

That's who I bought my lower bearing from, but C2O is awfully expensive for this little bearing. Since I couldn't find it elsewhere at the time, that's where I bought it from.

Getting the parts directly from GM is mucho cheaper, but the 67 part numbers listed above appear to be gone now. Other folks have said that the bearings are fairly standard sized bearings and should be available all over the place.

Try a locksmith. When I had my column rekeyed they also rebuilt the column for me for $35. It's worth a try. The locksmith I used had a huge box of column bearings.
